Starting the TALK discussion page

Every Wikipedia page needs TALK discussion to improve. Not seeing one, I'm starting one. Are there any criticisms for this web activity? Just asking, Charles Edwin Shipp (talk) 16:06, 25 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Here's one. Given that people pay more money for better players, how can this not be gambling? It's just like giving odds.Arlesd (talk) 23:25, 2 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This article is an advertisement, as flagged. I agree it is gambling. I'd like to know what percentage of incoming player money gets paid back to winners. I know in Nevada, casinos must pay about 95% back in winnings. 108.19.53.96 (talk) 01:20, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Gambling doesn't have to be a game of chance, but only a risky venture, which this certainly would be for most people. What's really wrong with this is that it encourages it. Just look at their TV commercials.

Awards

This section seems dangerously close to being promotional. -Xcuref1endx (talk) 22:26, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Guess the 5-25% fees they charge is not encyclopedic?

Also, 91% of the prize money is being won by 1.8% of the players. Guess this information that largely makes it prohibitive for any random player to expect success is just not encyclopedic in nature? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.224.251.239 (talk) 16:22, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
